It can't be that women believe that men aren't regularly thinking about sex, regularly thinking about and plotting how to hook up with women, etc., can it? I don't at all believe that most women are stupid, and it would require that for them to be at all shocked or surprised or anything about this story.

What would be shocking is if there were good evidence--which would basically require following someone around 24-7, being able to eavesdrop on private conversations, etc.--of some famous male who didn't exploit his status to try to hook up with his preferred sexual partners. The vast majority of men will use whatever advantages, whatever angles they can manage to try to hook up.
